For most PCs it's, like, that 2 billion number, the one that means 32-bits. For alphas, it's what?, 64-bits? I reckon if you could compile it on one of them Cyber thingies (digging deep for that reference, folks) it would be 60 bytes. 60 bits? Whatever. Of course, you could always get BCMath, and compile that in, and you'd be limited only to the size of RAM in your machine... You could write a PHP program to find this out in about the same time it took you to post question... -- Richard Lynch | If this was worth $$$ to you, buy a CD US Customer Support Director | from one of the artists listed here: Zend Technologies USA | http://www.L-I-E.com/artists.htm http://www.zend.com | (this has nothing to do with Zend, duh!)
